    If a player dies on purpose to avoid doing a QTE, isn't that considered an exploit or cheat? Who will perform the transition to the next phase then if everyone decides to die?

    It's not more an exploit than asking someone to craft an item for you. People just help each other out.

    When someone dies to avoid the QTE then this single person may get an advantage by passing something wich that person is unable to pass otherwise - but the group as a whole is at a disadvantage. The dead person has to be revived afterwards and gets a debuff wich reduces the damage output. That's hardly an exploit.

    And of course when everyone does this the group is unable to clear the fight.

    Even if it were possible, it's not the same as crafting. Even dead players need to do this QTE, as it was conceived by the developers, so if you are looking for a moment to die and avoid it, this is nothing more than cheating.

    Yes, it worked with some old QTE, but it isn’t considered with new one. Trying to trick the script will definitely be punishable, I think. Like logging out in 50's MSQ dungeons during cutscenes.

    The group is already not able to clear the fight if one of them did not cope with the QTE.
